* FROM: Kim Chavez – Circle of Love Chairman***
Have you ever worn a pedometer in a chosen amount of time? The pedometer helps us track our steps and calculates how close we've come to our goal. Our Circle of Love is a similar tool. It helps us keep track of our volunteer hours in different areas that interest us. It shows our community just how busy Catholic Daughters are in stepping up to the plate and being the hands and feet of Jesus to our needy world. It can also be a personal eye opener to ourselves as well; a tool we can use to keep us, as individuals on the path that will deepen our relationship to God. Ask one of your fellow Catholic Daughter's how it has benefited their life! Author: Eileen (Ike) Colleton
Just a reminder – please keep track of your CIRCLE OF LOVE - VOLUNTEER HOURS. If you would like to receive the reporting form electronically, please contact Kim.

A Child is Born
And, lo the angel of the Lord
came upon them, and the glory
of the Lord shone around about them: and they were sore afraid.
And the angel said unto them,
Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings
of great joy, which shall be to all people.
For unto you is born this day
in the city of David a Saviour, which is
Christ the Lord.
Luke 2:9-11

The heart is rich when it is content, and it is always content when its desires are fixed on God. Nothing can bring greater happiness than doing God's will for the love of God.

At our November
meeting a display table
was provided with a
box of toy soldiers,
teddy bear & poem.
(Picture Below) Every
one was asked to take
home a soldier as a
year round reminder of
our Veterans.
Take A Soldier
Remember the fallen Remember the lost
Remember the families Who paid the cost.
Remember those serving Today as we speak.
They are the strong, the brave,
Never the weak.
Please take a soldier With you as you go,
Place him in a place You will see and know,
So that will be reminded To pray for all who will
go,
Are gone, have been And those who never
made it home.
For they gave the ultimate sacrifice
So we freely could roam.
